Raja, did you notice this ?

Now stop that nonsense of highlighting a boatsmen's worth based on his success on English pitches alone.

Raja refers to English test pitches and not their odi pitches.

Law 31.6 - benefit of the doubt for an dismissal appeal goes to the batsmanA third umpire call for a run out or stumping is a referral, not a review.

Of course they're prepared differently, especially in England from 2015 on. Were you seriously not aware of this? You're a mod on a cricket forum!

Does not make any difference what so ever. A cricket pitch has a soul. No matter what you do it behaves same way irrespective of test match is played on it or a one day. Each pitch around the world have their own unique characteristics. They remain the same for both test and ODI cricket. You cannot make. Flat pitch as bouncy & vice versa. Duh !

Going South, I am adding you to my ignore list, so if I don't reply to your future posts, you now know why. I wish you all the best with your future learning and understanding of cricket and cricket pitches, such as grass length, if any, rolling and moisture (for grass, if any, and soil both) as well as any prior use.

Farewell and all the best.

If we muted everyone we disagreed with this would be a bit of a boring place. Just misty wandering around talking to himself

I have no intention of muting everyone that I disagree with, or I wouldn't even have Misty's posts to read!

If a moderator is able to GS to my foe list for me, I would apreciate it.

Sorry I can't return the favor of ignoring you as I need to read what u write and moderate. But if you pick a third member to pick fight I might need to put my admin cap and ban you. Ofcourse we would give you warning ahead of time before banning.
